Do you have any close friends in the society? You could try asking for feedback from them about how you're doing, sometimes it can be difficult to take an objective view about these sorts of things. Although if it's the fact it might get in the way of your degree I don't think that's bad to consider, after all it's what you're at uni for.

Realised I ever replied to this, I'm sorry!

Just having to do it/not knowing anything about it. Had so much time to research but I've taken so long to decide/find a topic, and still not sure on it, then had a busy few weeks/not felt too well/just hidden from it, really. Overall I suppose I'm marginally less bothered by it now than I was a couple weeks ago, just that it's so soon/over soon, plus it's not worth too much/I've missed assignments worth equal amounts easily. Just that with this it's in front of tutor group and tutor/they'll know, whereas no-one really knows if I miss an assignment/do badly.

Might ask a friend in society next term, they dropped out over christmas from their position (even if it would only continue for another 5 weeks 'til elections), so figure they might know more, plus they're on the same course as me, except a year ahead, so like they might be able to advise. Been finding it a lil' easier the last week or so with it, though. Is just horrible I think when it does get really busy :/

Echo peoples thoughts about that antidep thread thing - I mean I only just read up on it now after people just mentioned it here, but still Got me thinking about them, though/not sure what I'd say to 'em if I was offered/prescribed. Not sure. I suppose it's worth a shot trying them if the GP thinks it is.

Sorry you're still struggling with stuff, hope things can improve soon for you

stress levels rising and mood dropping. this isn't good news. this time last week I was utterly beside myself and ended up in a complete state. think its time to stop. yet again, failing to meet my targets and deadlines. im an absolute ****wit.

GP tomorrow Haven't written anything down yet, though figured I could possibly just do that before the appointment/it's at 2:50pm, so quite late.

Had a nice walk sort of today, went to tesco then went by ducks/just for a short stroll. Love the weather with it being kinda sunny now, though partly just being outside/walking while it's light is so nice, earlier in the term just have either been at home or in lectures when it's been light/been out while it's dark. Looking forward to doing more walking about as it gets sunnier/lighter though

I have no control over my life and I'm sick of it. Sick of feeling this terrible. Can't sleep, haven't done the work I need to, been feeling so stressed and unstable and depressed. Anyway, welcome to the thread. Hope you're doing relatively okay apart from the cold

I feel the same way.
Apart from the cold I've been all over the place! Health has fallen and have to have an Operation on the 20th! That's stressing me out cause the bloody doctors keep addressing the word 'cancer' and that just scares the s*** out of me!
So I've got extensions on work I wanna do but can't focus on!
Maybe we should just jump on a place to a deserted island and stay there for a bit to relax!!

for some reason im soo nervous about life, feel like ive forgotten to do something very important which needs to be done but cant do it because i dont know what it is. on top of that my tutor hasnt replied to my email containing my assignment which needs to be in as we're getting moderated this week which im dreading as i have a feeling they will mark me down

have too much to do and too little time to do it in (of the stuff i can remember) gahh, why do the next two weeks have to be filled with so much stress :/
